Split to Web folder (1 Viewer)

[SeanDelere]

Hi all,

I have been playing with the 'Split' facility in Access and have succesfully moved the tables to another location on my network and updated the table links.

I have tried moving the _be.mdb to a web folder I have set up which I can access from Windows Explorer.

When I use the linked table manager to point to the new location I can select the file OK but get the error message "Not a Valid File Name"

Am I doing something wrong or is this something Access can't do?

Try removing the '_' from the filename.

Removing the underscore didin't work but you did get me to thinking that there was something wrong with the file name so I mapped the webfolder as a drive.

Although it is pretty slow it works.

What is the best way to store the back end somewhere that can be accessed by two different computers?
